Jason Scott has posted a wonderful 20 minute preview of the documentary he has been working on about DEFCON, the world’s largest hacking convention that has been running 20 years. The film is scheduled for release in 2013.

Filmed over the summer of 2012 and containing hundreds of hours of interviews, parties, presentations and spectacle, the Documentary is to be released on 2013. Directed by Jason Scott with camerawork by Eddie Codel, Alex Buie, Drew Wallner, Rick Dakan, Steve Fish, Kyle Way and Rachel Lovinger. Produced by Jeff Moss and Russ Rogers. Over 280 hours of footage was recorded in support of the documentary, and five separate camera crews were in action. Thanks to everyone who contributed and everyone at DEFCON for letting cameras in to such a degree for the first time in its history.
